PROHIBITION.
The First Gun Fired at Morgan

The First Gun Fired at Morgan
Special to the Gazette.
MORGAN, TEX, March l9.-The prohi.
bition element of this county are getting
in readiness to fight the whisky traffic
for all there is in it at the August cleo
ton. Speakers for the temperance cause
are ALREADY in the field and are evidently
going to stay and work with might and
main for prohibition. There was a pub
lie speaking here last night by DR..
w. II. Parks and Rev. Mr.. Ward.
The first named gentleman's re-
marks were elOquently and torcibly
presented and abounded with logic. Dr..
Parks used considerable argument in be-
half Of prohibition that was entirely new
to the audience. He said that perhaps
the strongest argument the ants had
was that "prOhibitiOn does not prohibit"
In measure this is true. OF course there
will be some violations, if this be made g.
law. But is there any law in existence in
the state of Texas to-day which is held
inviOlate? It is against our laws TO muT-
der, to steal, to carry deadly weapons,
but all these OffenseS are committed
But the fact that there is q punishment
prescribed by law for such offenses less
ems the COmmittal of them in q very
great degree. So likewise Will prohibit
ton in Texas almost do away with the
whisky traffic, and thereby cause a de-
crease in human suffering, q decrease in
crime and decrease in nearly every evil
existing in this state. Some say that
prohibition is deprivation Ct the rights
of American citizens. I say no. 1t is
the duty Of the legislatures Of our
states to make such laws as
will best protect and prosper the citizens
thereof. They should endeavOr TO re-
move every barrier which in any way
tends to the violation of the laws they
enact. 1t is fact that the rum power
causes more violations of our statutes
than any known evil existing to-day
Our representatives. have seen proper to
submit the question to US as people as TO
whether prohibition shall become a law.
A short time ago when an Ameri-
can citizen was uniustly held
8 prisoner by the government of NJ xiCO,
were ready to 90 to battle in
that one citizens defense. Our govern
ment interceded in his behalf, and after
some consultation with the Mexican au-
thOrities gained his freedom. Today
IueIe are tuOuSduuS VI uOlueTS anu
daughters and wives, citizens of Texas,
and entitled to protection by the laws OF
Texas, whose rights are beng infringed
on continually. The money which
should buy for them food and
raiment is exchanged for whisky,
and the fathers and husbands who should
support them are made brutal, in many
by the same evil. Let US
while it is in our power endeavor to abol-
ish traffic which has, and is doing, so
much injury to so many that are inuo-

\ PRIEST SENT TO PRISON.

4 PRIEST SENT TO PRISON.
DUBLIN, March I9.-Father Keller,who
was arrested at Youghan yesterday, was
driven to court to-day in the Lord Mayors
carriage, receiving an ovation from the
people in the streets. He refused to give
any testimony as to his custody of the
tenants money as trustee under the
plan of campaign and was committed TO
prison for contempt Of court. The judge
declared that if the priests action in
disObeying the order of the court we're
permitted, the whole machinery Of bank
ruptcy would be usurptd.
FATHER KELLER'S Trial.
DUBLIN, March 20-The scene in the
streets when Father Keller was being
taken to court, was unparalleled in the
history Of Dublin. Vast crowds collected
and when the priest appeared riding in
the Lord Mayors carriage. cheer after
cheer greeted him. The noise and eX-
citement, both inside and outside the
courtroom, was SO great as to
prevent the hearing of the case, and
the Judge threatened to clear the court
unless silence was maintained, Finally
order was restored and Father Keller took
the oath. He refused to testify on the
ground that he would disclose confidence
repCsed in him as priest. The Judge said
there was no legel justification for his
refusal and said the question had no
reference to witnesses spiritual capacity.
Father Keller YVES then committed
for contempt and was taken out
of court and placed in a cab
in custody of officers. The people
Immediately made a rush for the vehicle,
removed the horses and dragged il
through the streets to KiImsinham
jail, where the priest was locked
up. Archbishop Walsh of Dub
lin was among the spectators
in court and he and William O'Brien,
Lord Mayor Sullivan and Timothy Har-
rington, NJ. P, followed the priest to
jail in carriages. Father Keller received
continuous ovation On his passage
from the court to Jail. The populace
marched to Kilmainham Jail singing,
alternately, "GOd Save Ireland"
and Gwen Hang Judge Boyd
on Sour Orange Tree"
The people uncovered their heads upon
arriving at the scene of Emmet's execu-
ton Father Keller entered the prison lean
ing upon Archbish Walsh's arm. O'Brien
harangued the crowd end predicted the
conflict which hal been begun would end
in the destruction OF Tory power and

WACO.
The Dressed Beef Experimentation
miIIs-BOsque Ore.

Dressed
hIiIIs-Bosque Ore.
Special to the Gazette.
WACO, TEX, March l9.-On the 10th
inst, at their works in East Waco, the
Waco Dressed Beef Company slaughtered
eight beeves, which were subjected to a
full charge of the gas used IN the Holgate
process for preserving beef, which pro-
cess is used by the company. The car
casses are as fresh, sweet, and pure from
faint to-day as when slaughtered. This
gss Mr.. Holgate's first experiment with
the kind of tank now in use Oy this COM
psny, and as about half the rubber tubes
bursted on him, owing to the position
they were forced into, he Is not fully sat
istied with the mechanical appliances OF
the same, end left for Philadelphia several
dsys since to make certain changes which
the first run has demonstrated are neCes-
s2ry.
The practical butchers connected with
the enterprise say the gas has undoubt-
edly great preserving qualities, ana it
would seem that It is only s question Of
mechanical application. Hearts, tongues
and such parts as 60 10 decay in very
short time are keeping perfectly sweet,
and muttons which have been exposed TO
the sum very severe test-show no
signs of decay yet. The company will
make another run on Mr.. Holgate's re-
turn, and will leave no stone uRturned to
perfect the mechanical APP lication,
which they feel is the only link
lacking to bring complete success.
At the suggestion of the Prohibition
state executive committee, mass meet
ing of the voters of McLennan county, in
favor of the adoption of the proposed
prohibitory amendment to the constItu-
ton, has been called to meet at the court
house in Waco, on Saturday, the 26th of
March, 1887, at o'clock p. ~, for the
purpose of eIecting q county executive
committee and otherwise formulating q /
plaa for the management of the campaign /
in McLenEan county. The Prohibition
executive committee opened its head |
quarters in this city to-day, having nice
office, where all the business of the cam
paign will be carried on and directed |
until the August election is over.
The operators of the Waco Cotton
Mills, in East Waco, have demonstrated
taet the mills can be proftably operated,
Fort Worth daily gazette. (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1882-1891, 1887-03-20

and now have movement on foot which
meets with the hearty approval of leading
business men and capitalists for the en-
largement of the mill into a product for
home use. This proposed enlargement
will give employment to more than hun.
dred operatives and will disburse from
$4,000 to $4,000 month for salaries alone,
and thus begin the boom for Waco as the
manufacturing center of Texas, as well
as the central city. A meeting of bust
ness men interested was held Thursday
and another yesterday.
Mr.. Richard Webb, who has Just re-
turned from Bosque county, brings with
him sample of ore, which is said to
contain precious metals. The ore was
taken from a well three miles from Nor
way Mills, and some of it was sent to
Washington city, where it was assayed,
and the assaYist reported that both gold
and silver were found. A good deal OF
interest was manifested on the report,
but Mr.. Webb says the people want az
expert in Waco to pass judgment on
the matter before they raise q boom up
there.
The movement in real estate for the
week ending to-day has been steady and
undiminished, as to inquiry and prices.
Many who bought few weeks ago at q
profit have sold at q good profit and re-
invested, and this is the way to keep the
money moving. The chief inquiry seems
to De for unimproved suburban property,
but all classes of realty are in brisk de-
mand and bring all the property is worth
right now. The transfers for the week
ending at noon to-day foot up $50, 800;
since January l, 1857 900.
Retail business has been fair in Waco
this week, but nothing to boast of, owing
to the semi-apprehensiVe state of feeling
growing out of the lack of rain. The
crops are not suffering yet, but rain
should fall within q week to put the
crops in this section in healthy condition.

order just published by the War Depart

Special to the Gazette.
TEMPLE, TEX, March l9.-The most
! disastrous confagration that has evel
visited our city broke out at / O'CLOCK
this morning in the rear of the business
house of d. J. LaPrelle, in the central
part of the block, bounded by Twelfth
and Fourteenth streets aud avenues D and
E. The flames soon spread northward to
the street enveloping the stone buildings
known as the HaWley block.
The wind was blowing briskly from the
south, but by almost superhumen efforts
of the fremen, assisted by the willing
hands of the citizens, the flames were
stopped, though the fire was raining
down in the shape of sparks and pieces of
burning shingles for blocks away. The
total loss is estimated at about 100000,
sustained by the following named parties {:
ID. j. LaPrelle, grocer, loss on stock
and house, $4,000; insured for $1,000, dis
tributed as follows: In the Home of
New York, $1,000 on stock; in the New
Orleans Insurance Association, $500 on
stock, AMI in the Sun Mutual of New Or
leans, $500 on stock.
Garrison, CRANE & Co., furniture deal
ers, loss on stock, $4,000; insured in the
Liverpool and London and Globe for
$1,000.
G. W Walton, grocer, loss on stock,

that the fire was incendiary, but there is
